Genevieve Gaignard: Counterfeit Currency
Jun 05-Aug 17The exhibition of new self-portraits and collages, all created in Florida, continues Genevieve Gaignard's interest in the performance of race, gender presentation, beauty standards, and class, through fictional personas and staged environments. The title, Counterfeit Currency, addresses the inherent complexities of self-presentation, noting that the way one appears to others is often incongruent with the way in which they see themselves, yielding a feeling of displacement and fraudulence.
